What Pens Are You Using Today?

[Arqui]

My new Nakaya is here. A beautiful pen. It arrived yesterday, and today is working with me in the office. It is a great pleasure to use it.

My new Noodler's Ahab from isellpens! What a neat-o surprise to get the Ahab today from Todd! Thank you Todd. I am having a ball with it BUT first I carefully degreased it in a solution of one drop of Dawn dishwashing liquid in warm water. Plunged it a few times (including picking up air bubbles and shooting them through, too). Then dried it and filled it with American Blue Eel ink from Noodler's. She took off like Moby Dick! The nib is flexier and the feel is heftier than the Flex Pen. Sam Capote's review is spot on. I did have a moment of trouble where the ink stopped flowing but I just pushed the plunger a little until I could see ink drops forming on the feed. She wrote just great.

 

In case you are wondering, I got the Arizona and it matches the Flex Pen so now I have a nice matching set of Flex's from Noodler's.

I have too many Pelikans, too many Parkers, too many Cross, too many Waterman, too many Sheaffers, too many Omas, too many Levenger, too many Pilot-Namiki, too many Sailor, too many Visconti, too many Delta, too many Waterford, too many Monte Blancs, too many Libelles, too many Retro 51's, too many Stipulas, too many Heros, too many... But i can't ever seem to be able to find something to write with today.

It's been a Parker kind of day today. Parker 51 Fligher but it's about empty so switching to my '46 Parker Blue Striped Duofold Vac for my evening journaling.

I finished off using my Bexley 58 inked with Sailor Jentle Blue-Black and Edison Huron with Diamine Oxblood in my journal this morning.

 

Inked up Monteverde Invincia Stealth with Diamine Eclipse. I really like this combination. Used it to jot a couple of thank you notes.

 

And, my constant companion - a Stipula Passaporto. I actually have two inked up right now. One with Private Reserve Sherwood Green cart and one with Montegrappa Blue cart.

Today, I'm mostly using a Delta Titanio in the Meteor LE resin. Originally, a fine, Richard Binder modified it to an XF Waverly nib, and I love it. I'm enjoying this pen so much, I'm going to write a review on it. Maybe I'll compare it to the Aurora Talentum, another fantastic, large pen.

This week (so far) has been a Parker 51 Kullock demonstrator inked with MB black. It's running low and I may swap it tomorrow morning for a recently new procurement, but it's writing so well in my hand... I'll probably refill it and stick with it for the rest of the week. I tend to use one pen all week anyway.

Today I pulled out the Visconti HomoSapiens

and filled it wih Private Reserves Naples Blue.

 

Spent several hours writing at StrBucks and

absolutely enjoyed the smoothness.

 

I am a happy camper. :clap1:

I just acquired a Titanio and have yet to put it down
